Daniel Waterland on Christ's Divinity & the Holy Trinity



Daniel Waterland (14 February 1683 – 23 December 1740) was an English theologian who defended the the full divinity of Christ against the Arians, Semi-Arians and Socinians of his day (e.g. Samuel Clarke). The following are links to some of his works on the subject. For many of the works there are multiple versions (of differing editions, dates, and scan quality) in Google Books.

The Moyer Lectures were (annual?) lectures dedicated to defending the orthodox doctrine of the Trinity. Daniel Waterland was the first lecturer in 1719. See his lectures are the "Eight Sermons" linked below.

Though Waterland is one of my favorite defenders of the Trinity, like all older defenses of the doctrine of the Trinity, the following works by Dr. Waterland have some deficiencies and problems which I point out in my blog:
